Surface plasmon polaritons at linearly graded semiconductor interfaces
Bibliographic record
Abstract
New results are reported on investigation of dispersion curves for surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) at an inhomogenously doped semiconductor/dielectric interface whereby the dielectric is represented by the same undoped semiconductor. The doped semiconductor is described by its frequency-dependent permittivity that varies with the depth. It is shown that a transition layer (TL) with a linear change in carrier concentration supports one branch dispersion curve regardless of the TL thickness. The obtained dispersion curves reach a maximum at a finite frequency depending on the TL thickness, and subsequently asymptotically approach the zero frequency in the shortwave limit. Therefore two surface plasmon modes are supported at a given frequency: a long-wave mode with a positive group velocity and a short-wave mode with a negative group velocity. A condition of a zero group velocity can be satisfied by tuning the TL layer. It is shown that the conventional dispersion relation for SPPs at a TL with a zero thickness is an asymptotic solution, and the convergence of real dispersion curves is point-wise instead of an expected uniform convergence.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
